    Something weird here?
    Different areas have a different sky and different ambient?
    That's not weird.

    It is weird to release such poor screenshots after the other ones though. The new ones don't even have AA enabled.

    Since, as Lindelu now says, they may release the 'rebalance' content in segments and not all at once, how about patching in the 'Hecklers will flee from those they are grey to' sooner rather than later? It was slated to come with with the 'all-in-one' rebalance and is an item that should be able to be implemented quick and easy with a minimum of repercussions in the code, compared to just about any other changes set for the rebalance. Doing so won't remove all the issues and griefing surrounding Heckler farming, but should significantly reduce the more egregarious ones.

It's too early to give our verdict, but Macrosun is doing his thing and as soon as I know the result I will talk about it more because we feel like this is a natural step that will allow us to have more enjoyable team based content no matter in which time zone you live in.

    With the Server merge this now leaves a server open.

    RK1 and 2 is considered broken. The Economy that is.

    You are launching a new player experience but does this include a new server? I hate to see you put all this time and effort put into this "new player experience" only to have them gasp for air that half of the population have billions and billions of credits and over the years FC has removed the mechanics in the game to farm these credits.

    Or do you have other plans to combat the economy?

    merge servers to rk2, and make rk1 new server with camera locked to 1st person view

    Angry

    I've been playing this game since 2005 and currently have all my slots filled in both servers. I really think a merge sucks because I would lose half the toons I have worked on all these years to say nothing about all the creds and good stuff I have on them. Please no merge there has to be a better answer to low population. Get the damn engine up and running that might help!!

    You would just have them renamed. Not deleted. If you have the same profession on both servers, well....

    """""Graphics Engine
    One of the things that we really want to focus on right now, is showing you the progress of our new graphics engine! We feel like it's about damn time, and thanks to Parsed and also Cube we're finally ready to produce our very first video""""


    I loled hard, after so many years. Producing very first video?
    I dont want to kill your confidence because you are the new GD.
    But the new engine is not going to save you.
    Old players will not come back because you only play a game for 3-4 years maximum 5-7 years, we get older and cannot play forever.
    And if you aim for new players you need to do serious advertisement, wich i know funcom will not.
    And if that miracle happens, you still will not get many new players because the "new engine" is already outdated.
    All you have/had are us loyal players and funcom been bullsh###ing us for last 3-4 years and you come here and still LIE. Talking about merging RK1 and RK2 means AO is going to die, do not try to fool us with "plans". I think Means quit because he knew he could not keep his promises and did not want to end up as a lier.
    Long story short, "the new graphics engine" was a "HOAX" wether it comes out or not.

    What are you talking about heilt-do. With only 8 slots filled on both servers, when you shut one down you cannot put those 8 into slots on the other server even if you rename them, they are gone.

    Can't you see my point, though? The population seems to be in a pretty steadly decline, expecially since swtor came into the picture. I would have to think those at the top might be cognizant of declining revenue and balance the costs of paying even the few people that work on AO with the amount of income potential the game still has. After a while, even those that love a dog realize it's time to put it to sleep.

    So in the long run you still wind up either paying more or losing your toons. That's still a bad idea!

    and where you did read that your toons will be deleted on merge?
    im sure FC will find a way to preserve all your toon.
    i can think of 2 possible ways without putting any effort to it.
